From Our Research Team:

An FET Mic from Groove Tubes

The Groove Tubes GT30 microphone is a true condenser, with the same capsule design and options as the GT44, except Groove Tubes uses a warm Class A FET circuitry that operates on standard +48v. It incorporates all of the features of the popular GT44 with FET circuitry replacing the tube for a great all around mid-sized diaphragm microphone at a modest price. Great on acoustic instruments and as drum overheads, the GT30 also shines on vocals. The GT30 includes hard mount and a hard mic case.

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.
